Abstract: A terminal (1) for connection of an electrical conductor (2) without stripping, having at least one conductor insertion area (13) for inserting an electrical conductor (2), insulated with an insulating material, into the terminal (1) in a conductor insertion direction. The terminal (1) has, for each conductor insertion area (13), an actuating part (50) and an insulation-piercing contact (30) having a cutting edge (33) for cutting through the insulating material and establishing electrical contact with the electrical conductor (2). The cutting edge (33) extends about an axis of rotation along an arc. By rotating the actuating part (50) about the axis the insulation-piercing contact (30) moves between a contacting position, in which the cutting edge (33) intersects the conductor insertion area (13) for establishing electrical contact with an inserted electrical conductor (2), and a release position, in which the cutting edge (33) clears the conductor insertion area.

Abstract: Terminal (1), in particular screw or connecting terminal, having a spring force terminal connection (2) with at least one conductor terminal point (K) for electrical connection of at least one conductor, an insulating material housing (6) which at least partially accommodates the spring force terminal connection (2), for each conductor terminal point (K) a conductor introduction channel (60) which extends in a conductor introduction direction (E) from the outside toward the conductor terminal point (K), and for each conductor terminal point (K) a release lever (5) which is mounted in the insulating material housing (6) pivotably about a pivot axis (A) extending transverse to the conductor introduction direction (E), in order to interact with an actuating portion (52) by pivoting of the release lever (5) with the spring force terminal connection (2) for optional opening of the conductor terminal point (K).

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a resilient force clamping connection (2) for a terminal block (1), in particular a connection terminal or connecting terminal, so as to electrically connect at least one conductor, said resilient force clamping element comprising a busbar (3), and a clamping spring (4) having a support limb (40), a resilient bend (41) that adjoins the support limb (40), and a clamping limb (42) that adjoins the resilient bend (41), wherein the clamping limb (42) comprises at a free end (420) that is remote from the resilient bend (41) a clamping section (421) so as to form a conductor clamping site (K) between the clamping section (421) and the busbar (3) so as to electrically connect a conductor (L) to the resilient force clamping connection (2).

Abstract: A terminal for electrically connecting at least one conductor comprises an insulating material housing, a contact body with a contact frame and a contact spring, and an operating element. The operating element has a bearing region for rotatably mounting the operating element in the insulating material housing about a rotation axis, and at least one operating structure, which is at a radial distance from the bearing region and extends in the direction of the rotation axis, for moving the clamping limb between the conductor clamping position and the conductor release position in the event of a rotational movement of the operating element about its rotation axis. The insulating material housing has a supporting region which axially extends between the rotation axis and the operating structure to support the operating structure on the supporting region at least in the conductor release position.
